As I said, I’m not new to chams, just this species. There is not a lot of info on activity on females after breeding. My female veileds always go to bask more after breeding. This girl is doing just the opposite, which baffles me. I have palpated her and no signs of major egg development. She eats, drinks, and defecates as she should.
